Map comparing which neighbourhoods are served by each hospital in Calgary before and after the South Health Campus opened.

Analyzing the Expansion of Access to Public Health Facilities in Calgary, AB

The South Health Campus is the newest hospital in Calgary. Construction began in 2007, doors opened in 2012, and the facility became fully operational in 2016.

This project used the network analyst plugin to assess how the opening of the hospital has met demands in Calgary's healthcare network. Of particular interest is to see if it has alleviated demand on the Foothills Medical Centre, which is the largest hospital in Alberta.

Projecting the Expansion of Public Transit Access in Calgary, AB

The Green Line is Calgary's largest public infrastructure project set to run from Calgary's north-central, through downtown, and to the south-east. When finished, the new LRT line will have 29 stations servicing over two dozen communities.

This project uses the network analyst plugin to analyze how the addition of the green line would expand access to rapid transit in Calgary.

Map showing example output of workflow automation script

Automating a GIS Workflow with Python

This project takes coordinates and a radius as user-input, turns them into a search area, and then automates a workflow that selects all buildings within the search area, calculates the area of each building, aggregates areas by category, and outputs a csv file containing categories and their respective aggregated areas. This script currently works with a fixed dataset so it has a preset list of categories and bounding box but can be altered to work with other datasets. See my code here.
